So, Mick Head playing his upcoming album acoustic style
New venue for me Jacaranda Baltic, it’s a basement, it’s got pillars, it narrows towards the stage, sound was good though
To get a ticket for this, you had to have already bought the new album which is released next month, so that means for the two of us, we had to buy two copies which is a bit naughty IMO and that will definitely be the work of the devil Pichalinghi.
Anyway Mick and Nat from his band run through the album and a smattering of precious songs acoustically and it lasts an hour.or so. Mick is in fine form and there’s a bit of banter
A couple of the crowd do that irksome thing of shouting out song titles like any artist is going to change the set list because you shouted out the name of the song and in the case of one knobhead shouting out American Kid (song on new album), he'd just played it a song before you moron
Bumped into a few old friends, one of whom I learned has had leukaemia since the last time I saw her, so that was a bit emotional and it was good to see the other friends too.
A good night was had and possibly the best thing was the onstage time of 8pm so it was all over by 9:15 making it so much easier to get home after a couple of apres drinks
